Non-Matriculated Students

Taking courses as a non-matriculated student is ideal for individuals who seek to study particular subjects without taking all of the courses required for a degree. There is no difference between a matriculated or non-matriculated student where a particular course is concerned. Taking individual courses as a non-matriculated student at LIM College may be done:

to see if LIM College is the right environment for you

as a refresher

for career advancement

for personal development

Non-matriculated students may not take more than 18 credits without applying for matriculation, unless given permission by the Dean of Academic Affairs. Non-matriculated students who have completed eighteen (18) credits must meet with an Academic Advisor to discuss their future academic goals. All qualifying courses completed as a non-matriculated student may apply toward an LIM College degree at any time. However, it is the then current transfer policy and degree program requirements that will determine whether a specific course taken as a non-matriculated student will apply towards an LIM degree program. International students may not apply for non-matriculated status.

Non-Matriculated students pay per credit tuition and are not eligible for financial aid.
